The satellite status page will appear, and the receiver will begin
to acquire satellites. Notice that when the GPSMAP 195 is properly

much quicker.
From the satellite status page, you may quickly adjust the screen
contrast.
To adjust the screen contrast:
1. Increase the screen contrast by pressing the right arrow of the
R
keypad.
2. Decrease the screen contrast by pressing the left arrow of the
R
keypad.
3. Press the
T
key to finish.
The GPSMAP 195’s three-level screen backlighting is controlled
with the
P
key, and may be adjusted at any time from any page.
When backlighting is on, a bulb icon will appear on the status bar.
To turn on and adjust the backlighting:
1. Press the
P
repeatedly until the backlighting is at the desired
level (off, low, medium, or high).
The GPSMAP 195’s satellite status page provides a visual
reference of satellite acquisition and receiver status, with a signal
strength bar graph and a satellite sky view in the center of the page.
The accuracy of your position reading is indicated on the upper left
hand side of the page.
